Ogi by Carol T Chung
During my travels through lovely San Francisco, I saw lots of amazing and wonderful stuff. At just about every other store without initially realizing who it was each time, I would notice the work of Ogi over and over again, like love at first sight on repeat. Finally on my last day, it happened once more and I asked one of the store clerks, "Who's Ogi?"— He's just graduated from a design art school in San Francisco and has established himself as a local artist. However, he's been unable to obtain a work visa to stay here and is leaving at the end of the month for Japan. His work is amazing and fresh, gritty but cute. I would have more of his stuff if my grass were a bit greener. Show some love and check him out.

Momimomi: Tar and Feathers
The Momimomi t-shirts we've come to adore and covet are coming out with a new series, Tar and Feathers. Hitting their website tomorrow, the tees are super soft and cut to fit perfectly as always, but we get a new round of great graphics. Fragmented and blotchy graphics create abstract everyday objects like a bird (above center), lightning (above left), and a leaf (above...

Rock N' Clothing Tees
The collectable desirability of vintage Rock and Roll t-shirts nears that of sneakers. In the case of the Rock shirts however, the thinner and closer the garment is to the end of its life the better. A Mötley Crüe tee, owned by a slightly chubby and sadly misunderstood teenager, only to be used later by her mother to clean toilets, simply adds to the...

I Heart Guts
The latest from the Los-Angeles-based label I Heart Guts (covered over in Spear-land earlier this month) is "Don't Lose Your Lunch" (baby style pictured). Like the rest of the I Heart Guts line (the brainchild of a designer/former teacher with a penchant for Japanese pop art), this tee anthropomorphizes organs and pairs them with puns in both English and Japanese. The upshot is a...

Moongirl
So many fashions jump the Hello Kitty nostalgia bandwagon sometimes known in less-polite circles as "Japsploitation" - so it's always reassuring to see a fresh take on Nippon-inspired style that doesn't rehash the age old stereotypes. The new t-shirt line from Moongirl is just one example: It eschews the cutsey stereotypes and instead brings a varied blend of fashionable and original print shirts for...
